Officers from Carlisle's Neighbourhood Policing Team will be attending The Lanes Shopping Centre to take part in the first "Cuppa with a Copper" event this Thursday (July 18) from 10am until 12pm.

The event, organised with The Lanes Shopping Centre and Muffin Break, gives local residents and shoppers the opportunity to meet the officers and PCSOs that make up their local policing team from across the city.

If you're in the city between 10am and 12pm and would like to report any concerns, would like some advice, ask any questions, say hello to your local officers or just have a cuppa, then meet the officers opposite Muffin Break this Thursday.
